Study group include 15 patients received application of MENS in addition to oral corticosteroid control group received only the oral corticosteriod pain was evaluated using serum cortisol level test and visual analog scale. Results, Regarding visual scale, there was significant difference between two groups (P<0.001), and there was significant difference between two groups regarding serum cortisol level (P<0.001). Conclusion micro current electric stimulation had modulating effect in patients with post herpetic trigeminal neuralgia
